Need help identifying this ball pythons genetics
Hey guys I’ve recently got this ball python female as a rescue from a person who no longer wanted her and I’m having difficulty identifying her morph. I’ve attached some pictures of her. Her eyes are very light brown/yellow and her flanks are rich yellow. ANy ideas of what she could be would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks in advance.

i'm thinking possible browned-out Pastel?
What do you mean by a browned-out pastel? I understand that some ‘poor quality’ pastels make ‘dirty’ morphs like seen in bumblebees and fireflys. Would this relate to what you mean at all?

nope, it's just a Pastel that's lost it's high yellows. that doesn't mean its "bad quality"; it's just what happens with the morph sometimes as the snake ages.

Oh ok thanks so much for that! She was not in good shape when I got her a couple of months back and was very dehydrated with eye caps stuck on. After a lot of attention and careful care she looks nothing like she use to and I’m glad I rescued her. Noticed a couple of weeks back she was permanently hugging her water bowl, which I’ve heard is a sign of follicular growth so introduced a pastel Male with her and they locked within minutes. Nice to know she’s a pastel too which by chance means if she goes to term she may produce some adorable superpastel babies!
